Do some pederasty
I've been imagining this exact same scenario for months except I existed during the fall of the Han dynasty.
I still have no definite idea what to do but it inspired me to read a whole lot of books on China and early science so I consider it one of the greatest wastes of time in my life.
You must save Lu Bu and Diao Chan.
The question is, can wikipedia knowledge help you in a society that lacks the infrustructure of contemporary society.
fug rome, I'd create a big expedition to america and build a civilization there

Not bathe in urine
Not put lead in wine
while you're at it, convince them to not chuck literal shit in the streets
Lu Bu was a cunt and Diao Chan was invented like a thousand years later.
But you have no idea how much I fretted over the proper way to approach the Sima clan in exile and support them gaining back influence at court.
That's exactly why I was reading books on early science.
But the hardest part is translating scientific concepts and the scientific mindset into something understandable by the ancient Chinese. I mean, East Asians pulled it off in the late 19th/early 20th century but that was after several scientific revolutions and modernization movements and they still needed to coin thousands of words for Western concepts. There must be a better way than teaching them how to read and grasp all those deeply Western-centric modern works that wouldn't have made much sense even to the Romans, and it was a condition of my fantasy that I wouldn't reveal I had access to works written by people from another world.
